edit: i rephrased this


great there is interest in the asiacoin community to change its image.

i could come up with some designs.

AC bounties are cool but if possible i would like to get paid for professional work in coins that could pay the rent.

i think before you are starting to think about asiacoin's official mascot better try to get some more extra asian languages sorted.

i offer a translation service for bitcoin as you can see in my signature.
me and a team of native speakers translate into several asian languages and could handle the official AC ANN OP and wallet translations if needed.

let's be a bit more professional! Smiley

i am open to your suggestions...

cheers

You are right, of course, but we cant pay for professional work, actually we need help and we can offer you to be part of the community, invest in the project and wait for results. If you take de AC Ann OP in asian languages you can take the credit and donations (bounties maybe too), I can do the same with spanish (wich is my language) and maybe we can grow in that way.


If donations are going to the translators, how is the core development group going to get donations to fund the AC activities? I think this has to be thought through.

Mmm... you are right, we need to know firts how can be the organization before think in that details.

1.- This "Ac Ann OP managers" can be part of the team, coordinated by you, if you are still in PPRR and marketing. Then you share the asiacoin of our department.

2.- This "Ac Ann Op managers" are independent and can have the donations from their thread and share X% with Core.

3.- This "Ac Ann Op managers" are independents and can haver the donations direction for core and their personal directions for donations.

More feedback needed. And an administrative department too.

And we still need volunteers.

Rather than departments, we will probably have individuals handling multiple roles. After a chat with Maestro1, we might want to kick things up a few notches by exploring fringe development projects. The first one we are looking into is our own blockchain explorer and minor polishes to the current AC wallet. Between the 2 of us, we can only manage that much since neither of us are C++ programmers. As for the other languages, we can explore but Maestro1 and I agree that a lot of altcoins fail because not enough vetting was done of incoming volunteers. We probably favour more of a paranoid approach and spoil the show for everyone. All in all, nothing will work out well if we do not have a developer who can work on the wallet.

Ok. Then...

We are a community with individuals doing jobs to improve the project and the community itself. We can put the proposals in the main page in order to fund each project. If we have Layer and their team with us we can have a larger community and maybe volunteers (maybe even the dev). So we need a proposal from Layer and their team, to be "Ac Ann Op Managers" (best if it is a volunteer job XD) and I will be one of them in spanish for free (I am a volunteer). In any case an "Ac Ann Op manager" (Short name required) can gather donations.

Is this it?

The main concern is that the managers controlling the ANN OP is a critical role, I don't think it should be a volunteered role but one that is more long-term. After all, the individual who control the ANN OP does control the entire ANN OP of the language. As for donations, I support the idea of maybe 2 to 3 donation addresses rather than spreading out the donations amongst ANN OP managers. In all honestly, ANN OP managers are still marketing staff. Like I voiced out several times, without a developer, nothing moves. We can have as many marketing projects but we are doomed to see AC fail to take off without a long-term developer. Simple as that. That said, the focus at the moment is better off working on fringe development projects that support AC and vetting C++ developers that can come onboard within disappearing halfway through like in the past.
